You know how we assume that men are born with the "handyman gene"? Well, my husband is just NOT that man. He is very technical and knows his way inside and out of nano technology and can fix computers, do electrical work and fix most computer type products but fix a pipe, hang a shelf, repair drywall he cannot. It all started with a trip to home depot to buy weather stripping for our back door.

Oh, yikes, on your NEW roof! What a frustration! Were you able to get in touch with Home Depot and get them back out?
I did, they came to fix it they didn't seal the chimney properly and the smock stack which is what caused the leaks. They will send out someone else later next week to look at the water damage.
